Haveno v1.9.0 is tagged! 🎉

This version brings a major refresh of the user interface, plus many fixes and security improvements from community review, including findings from Kevlar and AI-assisted audits.

Highlights:
• A new startup wizard to choose your currency and Monero node, or import a wallet from its seed phrase
• 24 new payment methods, including M-Pesa, Mercado Pago, GCash, BLIK, Wero, Pago Móvil, and Vipps MobilePay
• All payment methods are now supported over the API for mobile access
• The command line client is restored, and basic screen reader support is added
• Monero is updated to v0.18.5.3 and Tor to v0.4.9.13

There is also an experimental native wallet mode, which runs wallets inside Haveno instead of through monero-wallet-rpc, so it's faster and lighter. Enable it under Settings > Preferences > "Use native wallet (experimental)". Please share feedback, since it could become the default in the future.

This update is not mandatory, but it is recommended for all users. Arbitrators must update before users. Please back up your application directory before updating.
